Answers:
Talk to the owner(s) expressing your concern about the kitten.If they still treat the kitten badly.report them to the SPCA. Your identity stays anonymous.
I will never fathom how anyone could treat a kitten that way. If they can't take care of it, put it up for adoption at a shelter.
call the sspca straight away, this cat should be talken away, if they dont you should put food and water out if u can
Yes turn it over to the spca. it is wrong to treat animals that way.
Call Animal Control and tell them what you saw, they should come and take a look and if things are really bad they will take the kitten and place it for adoption (or euthanize him if really sick or agressive).
Yes, call the SPCA. Sorry if it causes friction but they can educate that person that that is not how you treat an animal. That is cruel, abusive and against the law.
maybe the family is away on vacation and left food and water outside but it ran out. the best thing for you to do is to offer to take care of their pets next time they're on vacation.
call the spca, they can help you.
A simple call to the animal control center and telling them of the location of the kitty and how it's being treated will be kept confidential and the person would never know it was you that was called. It's illegal to mistreat animals like that. People need to be just as responsible to animals as they would be to a child.
If you want to remain annonymous, call the police or animal shelter. Have them come pick it up. If they do nothing( which happens alot, unfortunately), I would go pick it up myself and to heck with causing friction. I love animals, also, and hate to see them mistreated in any way. Good Luck!
If you take it somewhere, you will be asked if you are the owner. I suggest calling the humane society and inform them of the situation. You don't have to give your name, even if they ask.
well if you really feel that sorry for the kitten im sure anyone else would too, so you probably should just take it there. and if they actually DO want it back maybe they will go look for it and check there.but its just a kitten they shouldnt leave it outside that little.take it in.poor thing.
was this one time I was taking a walk down my road and there were three cats tied up to a tree. They were all tangled and had no food or water. I called animal control and they came and ticketed the owners. Alot of people do not realize they are not caring for there animals the right way. Ma bey in your situation I would leave a letter on their door saying if they did not start taking care of there cat that you will call animal control and they will get an animal abuse ticket. Depending on where you live it is probably a misdemeanor still. but a ticket will cost alot more than a bag of cat food!!
I would call the spca.in the meantime maybe take that poor kitty some water and food, and if you can provide a better home for it take the animal yourself since you are already familiar with it.
Definitely call the ASPCA (if you live in the US, or the equivalent agency wherever you are)--this is unlawful and inhumane. I have a soft spot for animals, especially cats.call ASAP! Your identity will be protected if you ask them to do so. Don't worry--that animal's welfare comes before anyone's hurt feelings. Let the ppl get mad if they want; tough for them. They should've taken better care of their pets.
Do it! If they don't feed or water it, take it there and give it a chance for a new home. I was in the same situation with a neighbor's dog, and a friend of mine wanted it. I guess you could say I stole the dog and gave it to my friend. This was 8 years ago, and my friend still has her dog, and loves her. I know I did the right thing, because my neighbor was starving this poor dog. Take the poor kitten to the spca!
i rescued a cat that was in these exact conditions now it has a wonderful life.please take it and save the poor baby
give it food and water. One time a man in my neighborhood had kittens. They were all over our busy road. We took 2 of them without permission. He was grateful in the end.That was 4 years ago and we still have them both.
I'd call the SPCA and see if they can help. Or ask if you can borrow a cage trap to catch the cat which may be sick or diseased. Don't get bit trying to catch it.
Hardware stores will sometimes have trap/cages you can rent from them too to catch live animals.
The SPCA should be able to handle this for you though.
Blessing to your kind heart for your Kitty Love.
Good luck.
dont get to close the the kitty.
throw some food.
and spy on it.
call spca when its eating.
I would confront the owners and tell them that you feel that the kitten isn't receiving adequate care.maybe offer to take it off of their hands if they can't take care of it..if you get it, you can give it a good home or find someone else to.but don't stand around and let this keep going on, try to work it out yourself i don't think the spca is necessary
I think that first I would talk to the owner about it and really, even though you might not want to talk to them, you should tell them that you don't think that it's very humane and that they should try to take better care of it and mabe that there is a better choice of animal for them if a cat is just too much!
leave it alone, its not ur cat.
Try to find a family who will adopt it first, then go take it. The family it has now probably won't even notice, or they'll think it ran away.
If you can't find a family first, decide if it would truly be better off at the shelter. If it's a cute, younger kitten, it'll probably get adopted right away. Older cats have a harder time.
Or, maybe you can be a foster parent to the cat while you look for a home for it. Go to www.craiglist.org and post for free under "Free" or "Pets."
call animal protection they can deal with the situation plus there not meant to say who called them so it shouldnt cause friction. but do u really want friends who treat animals so bad? this kitten needs ur help it cant do it itself. or take it to spca and make it look like the cat ran away.
This is a great question, and thank you for your concern. A kitten is just a baby and we don't let babies roam around outside do we?
I would try to talk to the owners first, with the hope that you can educate them. Just as above, they need to be made aware of the dangers of a cat (never mind a kitten!) being outdoors. It could be run over, a neighborhood dog or wild animal might consider it "lunch", it could catch a fatal disease. Kittens especially cannot forage for their food and water. If you are tactful and kind, perhaps they will reconsider their current methods of ownership.
If NOT - it's time to go into second gear! Warn them that mistreating an animal is against the law, and they will be reported for cruelty. To heck with the friction. Is it worth sacrificing an innocent kitten's life for that? Call humane societies to ask for help. The police may also help too. If you're a juevenile, please have your parents, preferably your dad, help you! Investigate to see if there are kitty rescue or no-kill agencies that will help.
If you don't receive the expected response from the appropriate agencies, and the owners are doing nothing, I personally would resort to helping the kitten "disappear" to someone who will treat it kindly. Vets often have clients who recently lost a pet and might be very interested in taking in a helpless, neglected kitten.
Call the human society don't worry you will remain anonymous and report the neighbours for animal abuse. They will either warn them to take better care of the kitten or take the kitten away, they will call you after they leave and tell you what was done and if they just gave them a warning then they will ask you to notify them again if the kitten is still being abused so they can take it away and find a new home for it! You would be doing the right thing! That poor kitten cannot speak for itself you have to do it for the poor thing :Good Luck and PLEASE call !
